A volume can be associated to containers or storage pools.
* A container can have many volumes and containers are mapped to volumes the mount link on a container.
* A storage pool owns many volumes. The volume is only available to containers deployed on hosts that are part of the storage pool. When a volume is being created, you do not directly associate it to a storage pool. You will only need to specify a driver and during allocation, Rancher will resolve it to a storage pool.
